Sprint Moves Towards Own NFC Payment System – Bye, Bye Google Wallet?


Sprint has long been one of the few carriers to back Google Wallet here in the US, but it looks like that could soon change. According to a few internal slides leaked to Android Central, it seems Sprint is making plans to introduce their own mobile payment system, dubbed “Sprint Touch.” Everything here is pretty much standard form what you would find in a mobile payment app, complete with vault animations to give users a greater sense of security. Although the slides don't reveal any official backing by well-known financial institutions, a few retailer loyalty reward cards from McDonald's and Best Buy were briefly mentioned.
